JAM's Torch Bonanza - WSCL giveaway

Alice - 17 Aug 2006 22:32 GMT
Hiya all,

I'm posting this thread on behalf of JAM a.k.a Jay (*GodReturns) and
Sam (*Ekoodron).

Some of you may know that during his tenure in D2: LoD, Jay has run for
many torches that he has more than he ever needs.  Therefore he would
like to eventually give away his entire collection of torches to you
AGDers.  There are approximately 30 torches currently available for
grab.

To make this interesting, I will do some guessing games.  Each of you
may have up to 8 (eight) guesses every week of what torch (class /
attributes / resistances) Jay has in his mules.  Please number your
guesses 1 to 8, and separate them on a new line.  I will scan thru all
of everyone's guesses and award up to 2 (two) torches per person per
"period of time" if Jay has a torch similar in its statistics to the
one of your guesses.  "Period of time" really depends on when I and/or
Jay have time to check this thread.  It could vary from twice a day to
once a week :)  As an incentive though, school will start for me soon
and therefore I'm very likely to pick winners very often so we can be
done with this as soon as possible.

For example, let's say Jay has an Amazon 17/15.  One of your guesses
include an Amazon 19/14, and no one else's guesses are closer in
statistics to yours.  You will then win that Amazon 17/15.  I don't
have a tie breaker rule in place, in case of one, I'll pick the person
I like more :)

Please include your WSCL account name with your guesses.  We'd much
prefer if you will use the torches you win for yourself and not as
tradding fodders.  This is not limited to current west sc ladderites
only, anyone who wishes to start here is also welcome to participate!

Grrr a mistake already.  It should be 8 (eight) guesses every "period
of time".

Pally 12-16
Pally 12-13
Pally 18-18
Pally 18-15
Pally 18-12
Pally 14-14

Thanks Alice/Jam!  Any idea when the first round will close?  I chose
all Pally because that is the only torch type I need to use; otherwise
it might upgrade a current torch or sit on a mule (which I do not want
to do.)

I like this idea btw.  Creative.

Just to let everyone know, I also conduct this torch giveaway in AB as
well.

Here's the AGD result after round 1.  I'm using the following format:
Name: Guess -> Get

Gerald Abrahamson: P 15/19 -> 16/19
~misfit~: As 18/18 -> 18/16
-R: N 14/15 -> 16/16
Gene Jackson: D 12/17 - > 12/16
Strongfok: D 15/17 -> 14/17
RU42: P 12/13 -> 12/12
EvilBill: Am 19/20 -> 15/20

Will the above people contact me,
*VioletSky or *VSmule in Bnet
or reply to my email addy above

Even if you have already emailed me for the item giveaway, I want you
to email me again for the torch.  The mule account is likely to be
different than the one I use for the item giveaway, because there are
still people who haven't contacted me thus I can't delete the mules
yet. Emailing me makes it easier for me to hit the reply button,
instead of scrambling over to find your email addies.

Statistics after 1 round.
7 torches given to AGDers
7 torches given to ABers
16 torches left

This also marks the beginning of round 2.  Again, everyone is welcome
to join.  We'd really appreciate if you ask only for torch that you
will actually use.

Round 2 may take longer before I'll close, because I've been busy with
Realm Beyond Diablo.

Thanks to EvilBill who helped me to mule the torches.  Same account as
my giveaway one.

~misfit~, I put your torch in your main account, the last char I think,
a level 1 Pally - ChiliWiley.

Those who know my account info from the items giveaway, please let -R,
Gene Jackson, and Strongfok know if you see them.

Those who receive torch, please thank Jay if you see him.

Thanks Alice, I'll have to get working on my trapper now. <g>

I haven't got around to building that Pally yet, he's supposed to be a
re-build of ChillBill-II now I have his end-gear, except I've been hoping to
get an Anni for him first. A bit like how you built Threl last ladder, only
you did it right first time. ;-)

Hehee, is he still playing? Thanks heaps Jay.

Well I'm not on BNet as often as some, so I'm going to say here, thanks very
much Jay :D

Wow, thanks!  Here is to my very first torch.  I will try to see you
online tonight, though Misfit (if you are listening and it is okay with
you), my torch can be placed in one of your accounts and whenever you
get time you can place it in my Druid's stash.  Alice, I can't thank
you enough and Jay also, now if I am lucky enough to win a barb or
pally torch...

Thank you again,

Juan,

I moved the torch and also the Andariels Visage that Alice gave you earlier
onto your druid.

Cheers,

Thank you Shaun, as always, you need anything in my account, it is
yours.   Alice, I can't thank you enough, I just can't believe we are
losing so many people to wow; or maybe I started playing the game a bit
too late...  My druid will come of age soon, he is just a little
sapling now, but will soon be a solid oak.

I got mine, Thank you very much Violet and Jay. You can delete R_agd if you
like. I would have done it myself, but since it is not my account, I didnt
want to step on any toes.

Thanks again

> 16 torches left

After the end of round 1, I have been giving away more torches to
people in my friend-list and several other AGDers.  Those AGDers didn't
need to guess the torches, because they are new or somewhat new, and
after talking to them I found them to be pleasant.

I will sort through the guesses by this weekend and select the winners,
but before that I'd like to update the current torches available.
Am: 0
As: 2
B: 0
D: 2
N: 5
P: 0
S: 0
Total 9

Everyone is welcome to revise their guesses if they want.  As always,
please guess only torch that you *will* actually use, not one that you
*think* you may have a use for.  As long as you guess a torch class
that JAM has in stock you will win one.  As I did with round 1, I will
sort thru everyone's guesses, and the closest guess wins the first
torch, and so on until either no more torches or no more guesses.
Alice - 08 Sep 2006 15:42 GMT
I'm using the same format:
Name: Winning Guess -> Torch Won

Cavadure: As 15/16 -> 20/11
Gene Jackson: N 17/15 -> 19/13

You can retrieve your torches in the same mule as before.  Contact me
or other previous winners if you forget the mule info.

Statistics after 2 rounds.
15 torches given to AGDers
7 torches given to ABers
1 torch given to BBer
7 torches left: 1 As, 2 D, 4 N

Wow! thank you so much.  My trapper sends her love and gratitude. :)

It's been a while, so I do forget the acct//pwd.  Could you email to
toxaristhrasoe at yahoo dot com?  If not, I'll look for you online.
